While Destiny was planned for a September 2013 release, the story was substantially revised in August 2013. That pushed the release date back to March 2014.

I can confirm that there were sudden and abrupt changes in the development of Destiny less than a year ago. There was tension between higher ups the entire time we were developing the title due to a lack of cohesion about the vision for the game. One side wanted this huge space epic, like an MMO Mass Effect and the other side was not convinced that would sell and wanted to pare things back to more "easily accessible" standards. They were afraid too much story elements and cut scenes would drive players off. Then Joe left and everything just fell apart. By the time we were 7 months out to release, word came down that we were making massive revisions to the game's story.

These accounts line up perfectly. DeeJ claimed it was trolling...I don't know what to think at this point.
